GPU upgrade only (for now)
DDR4 doesn't matter jack (no noticeable difference for common use)
new Intel CPU's "Kaby Lake" will be released sometime end 2016 or starting 2017 (soon enough)
pricing might also change a good bit once AMD has gotten somewhat more competitive with its upcoming ZEN CPU's
... and Intel could forced to reduce their prices on already available CPU's to "compete" aggressively
GPU whichever suits your needs and wallet > rx 470, rx 480, gtx 1060 - the 1070 and 1080 too damn expensive in yurup
(i'd go with a cheap rx 480 8gb - best bang for the buck ... or if its in the same price range gtx 1060 6GB since they outperform
amd in almost every game/benchmark)

for sure but not by much - if i remember correctly from some review somewhere around ~ 3- 10 fps MAX
(heavily depending on the game and settings ... only 1 that comes to mind GTA V as CPU heavy game )

Is GTX 1070 that much better than 1060? Here it cost 289€ for ASUS GeForce® GTX 1060 6GB GAMING OC and 469€ for ASUS Geforce® GTX 1070 8GB DUAL. I can afford them both, I just couldn't find any good comparison between those two on how they perform differently in games, looked kind of like if I play on 1080p it's all the same. :)
Also, what's the biggest difference between Asus and MSI? Is the noise change really that noticeable?

It looks like the 1070 is about 40% faster while costing about 60% more (at the prices you listed). It's up to you to decide if it is worth it.

Just buy a new GPU.
You can overclock your CPU if necessary.

Buy an aftermarket CPU cooler and overclock it to 4.2 - 4.5 Ghz. Then put the rest of the money into a GPU. Everything else is still good.

So, I bought a new GTX 1060, but what I didn't realise my 560Ti used old DVI-I as a connector to monitor, tried to connect via HDMI, but my monitor was apparently not really working well with HDMI (and warranty ended 2 years ago already) so I ended up buying new monitor for 310€.
Guess I will need to upgrade everything eventually. :/
Thanks for all your hints, all games are working nicely now, still can't run Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on ultra though, but high settings look fine enough for me.

Heyaa, I'm upgrading my PC now and thinking about getting new motherboard, processor, GPU and RAM (because oldish DDR3 won't necessarily fit into new motherboard).
Here's what I've got now:
I need help to decide should I go LGA 1150 or LGA 1151, tell me hints on which to choose
Was thinking about buying GTX 1060 because it's cheap and I play and use screen that is 1080p, any thoughts?
Something that can run all (or at least most of them) new games like Mafia III, Deus Ex: Manking Divided, DOOM on max settings
And I guess rest of my setup is unnecessary. Currently I've 16Gb DDR3 memories, but I can buy DDR4 ones if the motherboard will be LGA1151.
Looking for hints and suggestions on what to get and why. Thanks!
